Sometimes I think, I'm so cynical and wise to the ways of the world but I still find I can impress myself with my own innocent naivity.  Late last night I was walking to the corner store and I walked past a bunch of guys who were hanging tough around their car with their bangla hip hop up loud and one of them calls over "Nice hat!" and I wave and say "thanks" and a part of me, even if it's a really, really small part of me thinks - "hey maybe he really *did* like my hat".
